Olympus D-340L Test Images

Outdoor
portrait: The D-340L's autoexposure had a bit of difficulty here
- The normal exposure came out a bit dark, while the 1-stop
compensated image lost detail in the strong highlights. In this
image, we've done a "levels" adjustment in Photoshop to bring
the tonal range into balance. Excellent detail, good "shape" in
the red roses.

Indoor portrait,
flash: Good balance between the flash and available light. Natural
skin tone, good color balance overall.

Indoor portrait,
no flash: A little warm for our liking: Overall, we found the D-340L's
white balance a little less aggressive than the other Olympus cameras. On
the other hand, the color cast is very well behaved. In this
version, we simply did an "auto levels" operation in Photoshop
and voila! GREAT color!

House shot:
Super detail, good color tending slightly to the reddish, very few compression
artifacts.

"WG-18"
resolution target: (Technoids only) - Visual resolution of ~700-725
line pairs/picture height both vertically and horizontally, essentially
NO color aliasing. "Super High Quality"
mode slightly decreases JPEG artifacts, at cost of larger files. "Standard
Quality" mode is excellent 640x480. "Digital
Tele" mode is a cropped-down version of the full array, but could
save hassle shooting distant objects, if you can accept the lower resolution.

Viewfinder
accuracy/flash uniformity target: Aim point of the viewfinder is
very slightly offset up and to the right (meaning that the captured image
is shifted down and to the left by about 5% of the frame area. Captured
image is about 15% larger in height and width than the area shown in the
viewfinder.
